Ethical Quotes

I’m tired of this discussion of capitalism and socialism; we live in the 21st century, we need an economic system that has democracy as its underpinnings and an ethical code Picture Quote #1

A lot of things that we cannot buy and sell in markets used to be totally legal objects of market exchange - human beings when we had slavery, child labour, human organs, and so on.

Man is an animal with primary instincts of survival. Consequently his ingenuity has developed first and his soul afterwards. The progress of science is far ahead of man’s ethical behavior Picture Quote #1

Don’t make misrepresentations to anyone you deal with. If you believe the other person may have misunderstood you, correct any misunderstanding you find exists. Honesty is integral to ethical behavior, and trustworthiness is essential for good, lasting relationships Picture Quote #1

Our treatment of animals and our attitude toward them are crucial not only to any pretensions we have to ethical behavior but the humankind’s intellectual and moral evolution. Which is how the human animal is meant to evolve, isn’t it~? Picture Quote #1

Reliable scientific knowledge is value free and has no moral or ethical value. Science tells us how the world is. ... Dangers and ethical issue arise only when science is applied as technology Picture Quote #1

Today is the parent of tomorrow. The present casts its shadow far into the future. That is the law of life, individual and social.
